Chapter 971 (His Majesty is Still Quite Kind)
Chapter 971 (His Majesty is Still Quite Kind)
This feeling hadn't occurred for a thousand years, this embrace... had only happened once!
It was on the day of their wedding when Ye Hua urgently needed to go to war. As he departed, he held her tightly, assuring her that he would return!
Although it lasted only a brief few seconds, it was unforgettable for a lifetime—the feeling of being bathed in warm sunlight both physically and emotionally.
Qian Yuqing, who had closed her beautiful eyes, forcefully opened them a little.
What appeared before her eyes was a familiar side profile. Qian Yuqing's beautiful eyes displayed confusion at first but were quickly replaced by surprise.
Ye Hua had appeared before her, still holding her...
He was the same as before, without any difference.
The only difference was his hairstyle, not as attractive as before.
But it didn't matter; Ye Hua was still the same as before, his gaze still as cold.
Qian Yuqing wanted to speak but couldn't. She could only use her eyes to tell Ye Hua how much she missed him, how much she worried about him, how much she loved him.
This joy came too quickly for Qian Yuqing. She alternated between crying loudly and low laughter, behaving like a child.
Perhaps Qian Yuqing was too tired. She fell asleep in Ye Hua's arms. Although she was asleep, her hands tightly grasped Ye Hua's clothes, as if afraid he would leave again.
In a daze, Qian Yuqing suddenly felt a gust of cold wind, shivering.
Feeling the chill on her body, Qian Yuqing seemed to realise something, opened her beautiful eyes, and shouted, "Ye Hua!"
However, everything in front of her changed.
She was still standing in place, and the palace gate was tightly closed.
Qian Yuqing became confused. Was everything just a dream?
How could that be? Dreams are not so real. Ye Hua...
Qian Yuqing looked down at her fingers, her lips gradually forming a smile. Then, she raised her head to gaze at the palace.
Ye Hua was still the same, stubborn.
At this moment, Ye Hua walked in the palace, allowing the snow to fall on his shoulders. However, upon closer inspection, you could see a large wet spot on Ye Hua's chest. It didn't seem to be wet from snowflakes; it looked more like tears.
Ye Hua gradually approached Qing Yutong's palace, pushed open the door, took off the imperial robe, and then lay down on the bed, closing his eyes as if going to sleep.
It seemed like he was sleeping, but in reality, Ye Hua was pondering a problem. The fundamental issue was...
Should he really go back? Facing matters unrelated to his past, wouldn't it just be adding unnecessary troubles?
Should he or shouldn't he go back?
This was probably a question Ye Hua couldn't figure out in an instant. Even though he knew deep down that he wanted to go back, he still lacked a reason for now.
However, his subordinates' expressions at this moment seemed a bit strange.
At this moment, Zi Shan spoke softly, "Actually, His Majesty is still quite kind."
Wei Chang, Lie Gu, and Jue Tian immediately looked at Zi Shan with raised eyebrows. She actually said that His Majesty is kind. If you didn't witness the times when His Majesty wasn't kind, it felt like he was on a rampage, destroying everything in his path.
"Yeah, that Qian Yuqing is actually quite pitiful," Tang Wei also said in a low voice.
"But in the end, His Majesty is still gentle," Li Hun smiled slightly, indicating that His Majesty is not as cold-blooded as it seems.
Lie Gu whispered, "But in the end, I still don't understand."
"Perhaps His Majesty's heart is still wavering. As long as he figures it out, everything will be fine," Wei Chang took a deep breath. His Majesty had gotten into big trouble this time.
The subordinates sighed lightly, realising that such matters were beyond their scope. After all, it was a domestic affair of His Majesty, not a confrontation with a powerful enemy. If it were a formidable adversary, it could be resolved within minutes.
It turned out that the saying was true—every family has its own troubles.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi walked in.
The subordinates hurriedly saluted, "We pay respects to the Ladies!"
"Please rise," Qing Ya said in a deep voice.
"Thank you, Honored Lady!"
Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi had also witnessed the scene just now and noticed Ye Hua going to sleep in Qing Yutong's room.
However, after everything that happened tonight, Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi found it impossible to sleep. They couldn't sleep at all.
Wei Chang respectfully inquired, "May I ask why the Ladies came here late at night?"
Donghuang Baizhi whispered, "Wei Chang, Lie Gu, you have been with Ye Hua for the longest time. Is there any solution now?"
Wei Chang and Lie Gu exchanged a glance. If there were a solution, they would have used it long ago. Why wait until now?
But since the Lady asked, Wei Chang still had to answer.
"Back to the Lady, this matter cannot be rushed. We need to wait for His Majesty to figure it out by himself. What we need to do is not disturb His Majesty," Wei Chang offered the most sensible advice.
Lie Gu also nodded, "Yes, His Majesty likes to contemplate alone when facing difficulties. As long as he figures it out, everything will be fine."
"How long will it take for him to figure it out?" Qing Ya asked. Although Ye Hua had lost his temper today, Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi didn't blame him. After all, in such a situation, Ye Hua was also emotional.
How long would it take for him to figure it out? This question left Wei Chang, Lie Gu, and others at a loss.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi understood that it might take a while for Ye Hua to figure things out.
"Rest early," Qing Ya said softly, then left with Donghuang Baizhi.
The subordinates stood for a while and then each returned to their homes.
Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi arrived outside Qing Yutong's royal bedchamber.
"Do you want to go in and accompany Ye Hua?" Qing Ya asked with a hint of uncertainty, as it was unclear whether Ye Hua wanted company at the moment.
Donghuang Baizhi twiddled her fingers, "It's probably better not to disturb Ye Hua, let him be alone in silence."
"True," Qing Ya nodded. At this moment, Ye Hua needed some time for contemplation.
If he didn't return, he would carry the stigma of being unfilial. However, for Ye Hua, he didn't care about such reputations; after all, his previous reputation was already tarnished.
But if he returned, he would have to face family ties and even some brothers, which could disrupt Ye Hua's original plans. After all, it was not the time yet to appear in the Spirit City, as there were still matters to be resolved in the Sapphire Continent.
As the night gradually dissipated, ushering in a new dawn, Qian Yuqing still stood outside the palace gate. The surrounding streets were all sealed off, not allowing even a mosquito to enter.
This situation drew the attention of the residents, who speculated about what had happened, especially considering the anomalies that occurred the previous night—the towering giant axe and the terrifying vibrations.
People gossiped during tea breaks and meals, speculating that this event must be related to that woman. What was the connection between that woman and the emperor? Some even guessed that the emperor's brother was a deity, so could this sudden woman also be a deity?
